The article is a review of scientific research on the influence vestibular system human cognitive functions. apparatus well studied. Research in recent decades using functional tomography techniques has shown that it extensive connections with subcortical and cortical structures brain provide activity. Hypotheses are put forward conduction processing bioelectric impulses by brain, which recorded apparatus, creates necessary background for course all processes. limbic system, hippocampus, striatum neocortex. Therefore, dysfunctions can reduce ability to learn, cause impaired attention, memory, executive functions, disorientation, affect stress levels. An urgent area study sensory reactivity children’s learning ability. This long been underestimated, since was generally assumed motor development occur independently each other. mechanisms linking dysfunction impairment have not yet sufficiently Further studies needed assess possible impact speech. Such already underway. Their results most relevant patients neurodegenerative disorders children special needs.
